You make me so happy. I don’t feel as self conscious, even though I know that’ll be an issue I will be working on for all my existence. You’ve let me into your life in several different aspects and that’s brave. These past few months I have felt more whole than ever before. I am so happy I was able to achieve happiness with myself, somewhat, before you came into my life, because now I am that much more stable, than if I hadn’t. I have experienced a connection with you that I haven’t with anybody else, and I can now say I am living my life more intensely than ever. I want to take risks like bungee jumping off the grand canyon, jumping out of airplanes 20,000 feet in the sky, scuba diving in the middle of the ocean, but opening myself up to you has been the most vulnerable feeling I can imagine. I never used to be a “feelings” person. They made me feel too weak, too silly, too immature. Now, hell, I’ll take feelings any day! They are beautiful.
